     Dear fans, friends, and family,
     
     As some of you already know, we have been busy over the last five months with writing and recording some new music. It is easily the most proud of anything we've ever been a part of. We have joined our minds and hearts to create something unique, and we want you to be a part of it.
     
     Before we do that, we have a bit of explaining to do...
     
     Our atoms have split, forming clones of ourselves who can no longer recognize themselves as greenwheel. WE ARE: Go Van Gogh.
     
     The members are the same as greenwheel?
     Yes.
     
     Greenwheel is still alive and well, and will be playing shows all over the place. We've got some college shows, and a casino show coming up in greenwheel land during the next few months ...
     stay tuned...
     
     Go Van Gogh's sound consists of funky, dance tunes about lust and anger ... Velvet R&B tunes with lost love and winning hope ... at times..... frantic and visceral,....... at times melodic as a lullaby ... and at times, .... too much for the human brain to handle.
     this is only the beginning...
     
     March 9th is the day we release our new EP, Ruby and the Starlight Ballroom. We can't wait to get some feedback from you, so go hit the new myspace page ... now I say! Start some musical conversations.....we are ready.
     
     Go Van Gogh will be embarking on some virgin touring starting in March, with our very first show to be the CD release party in STL (3/9 @ Cicero’s). We will be venturing further out of town in April, May, and beyond. We can’t wait to get out there with new tunes, new vibes, and maybe new neck ties.
     
     Why the change you ask? We all felt the need for a new creative outlet is the simplest answer. Something that was completely new and inspiring. It’s fun to start something from the ground up again and we just hope you all love it as much as we do. We have not been this creatively inspired in a very long time – and it feeeeeels goooooood.
     
     If this confuses anyone, don't be afraid to ask questions – hit up the new page and message us (or yell). We will be more actively involved with that page for the next couple of months so don't email the greenwheel page. It’s too hard to run two pages at once folks! We look forward to seeing and hearing from you soon, we've missed you all.

     Sincerely,

- Greenwheel To Release New EP -
03/14/06
     OK. So the time has finally come … :-) We know it has been YEARS since we have had the opportunity to officially release a cd, and that some new music is WAY overdue … so, we have an announcement to make …
     On March 28th, we will be releasing a brand new EP entitled “Bridges For Burning”. Over the past 6 months, all of us have been working our asses off to be able to record enough new music to put together this 5 song disc. We feel incredibly proud of the new level we have achieved on this record. Never has the music been such an extension of all 4 of us … No record labels telling us what to do, no outside influences, none of that … this truly is our “baby” and we hope that you all enjoy it. :-)
     
     For inquiring minds, here is the Track Listing:
     1. Trigger
     2. Caving In
     3. Lonely Afterglow
     4. Knife
     5. To Each His Own
     
     To give you a little sneak peak, we added two of these new songs to our myspace mediaplayer, so check ‘em out and let us know what you think.
     So, how do you get your hands on this shiny new disc you ask? Well, this is how …
     We are starting a tour at the end of this month – “The Bridges For Burning Tour”. The first few weeks of tour dates are listed on our page, and there are several more weeks of tour dates still to be announced (the info will be coming soon, we promise). You will be able to buy the EP at any one of our tour dates, and we will also have it available on our webstore at greenwheel.net if you can’t wait until the tour … it should be up on the webstore for presale in the next week or so.
     So that’s the story folks! :-) Thank you so so so so much for your support, love, and encouragement over the past few years! We know that we kind of disappeared there for a year or so and that from the outside, things looked bleak. But we have regrouped in a huge way and feel more confident than ever with who we are and what we can create. This business is a crazy one to say the least, and to know that our fans have been behind us for every step of this is truly an honor and a privilege. You have no idea how much you all have meant to us … thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We love you all more than you could ever know.
